Ever
since rebellion broke out in Mystic City, pitting the ruling elite
against the magic-wielding mystics, Aria has barely seen her boyfriend.
Not surprising, since Hunter is the leader of the mystic uprising, and
he'll do whatever it takes to win freedom for his people—even if that
means using Aria.

But Aria is no one's pawn. She believes she can
bring the two warring sides together, save the city, and win back the
Hunter she fell in love with.

Before she can play peacemaker,
though, Aria will need to find the missing heart of a dead mystic. The
heart gives untold powers to whoever possesses it, but finding it means
seeking out a fierce enemy whose deepest desire is for Aria to be
gone—forever.
